Ester Nicholson is a celebrated vocalist, having performed with artists such as Bette Midler and Rod Stewart.

A former addict, Ms. Nicholson has spent the past 10 years unifying the 12-Step process of Alcoholics Anonymous with metaphysical principles, working to re-define what success looks like in the treatment of addiction and dependence. The culmination of her work is now shared in her book Soul Recovery - 12 Keys to Healing Addiction, which will be the subject of tonight’s show.

Ester's personal journey sketches a path from humble beginnings in Long Island NY, through crack addiction and domestic abuse to the pinnacle of professional achievement in music.

Studying metaphysical principles and practices from Michael Bernard Beckwith, Ester became a spiritual therapist and a teacher of the "12 Keys" learned through her difficult, self-directed healing process. Now, seven years later, she is speaking, teaching, facilitating workshops and touring the country with her message of hope, healing and possibility.

On tonight's show Ester will discuss The 12 Keys that provide a framework for each of us to move beyond powerlessness into an awareness of power and freedom.

As usual, at the end of the show, Lynn and her guest will play the '7 Graces Lightning Round' when, in less than 3 minutes, our guests will show how each of the 7 Graces relates to everything discussed during the show.
